cannot find Internal NIC Configuration?

Hi all, I recently reformatted my m1210. Now I no longer have the Internal NIC Configuration option in Control Panel. What am I missing? My internal NIC is working properly but I cannot disable the nic power when on battery. Thanks.

    In Drivers section there are two drivers for the internal NIC...
    One is the actual driver and the other one is the controller
    The one you need is http://ftp.us.dell.com/ network/R150593.EXE it's 9MB
                                 Broadcom Advance Control Suite (Gui Diags)
     
    The driver is Broadcom 4401/B0 Ethernet Drivers and it¿s only 4 MB

    The one you need is listed as Network - diagnostics Utility published may 16th but both drivers have the same name..
     
    Broadcom 440x 10/100 integrated controller
     
    The driver you don't need is listed just as Network - driver

    Thanks. When I choose the m1210 for download it does not list this control suite as an option.

    I installed the diagnostic software as you recommended but still do not see the internal nic configuration option. Any other suggestions? Thanks.
